Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army

As the G.o.ddess of love, Venus had control over all forms of love that was gained from close proximity and interaction, for example, siblings love, motherly love and so one. What she had control over was what she had experienced in her own life, like all the ascended, they could only control what they knew, and something that Venus did not know about in her lifetime was the love most refer to as friendship.

The feelings of friendship and friends love are different, simply put, friendship is a state where being with someone can make you feel comfortable and friends love is being comforted even by the thought of being with that person, the two things are very different, most people who experience friends love refer to it as platonic love, the purest form of love in this world. You experience all the emotions you would experience in an ordinary relationship but there is no l.u.s.t nor is there any such possessive feelings, although you want your friend by your side you don"t mind letting them be with others, and you just love them because loving them makes you feel comfortable.

Contrary to platonic love, other forms of love that depends on close proximity have a drop of l.u.s.t and possession in them, and they depend on the proximity to extend the range of love, for example, siblings love would die slowly after becoming an adult because simply there is not enough proximity anymore, the same for parental love, and even marriage and ordinary love, take the proximity away and you can feel the love dissipating.

However friendship lasts longer with minimal proximity, and platonic love lasts forever, for example, soldiers drafted in the army are more likely to think about their pets or comfortable friends than to think about their families in order to stave off the loneliness.

Reciprocated platonic love will always blossom into a proximity love sooner or later, and that was why no matter how many love strings Venus cut off between Fortuna and Yunan she could not eliminate the love between them. And that is what Venus wanted from Yunan, she wanted to understand the feeling of platonic love and for that, she needed to watch Yunan and his interactions with those he claims to have an unbreakable love with.

This was what Debauchery cla.s.sifies as a headache and would kill to keep this kind of thing far far away, and Yunan was no different, he told her to come by on weekends if she wanted to observe, otherwise, he refused to have a spy watching over his shoulder all the time. Yunan did not even explain what the feeling was to Venus because watching it was the only way to understand it, and if she could not understand by simply watching then there was no hope even if he explained it word by word to her a million times, it was something you feel not something you are told.

Yunan took the chance to steal Fortuna on a date even if he had a third wheel tagging along, and although Yunan was blissfully ignorant about Venus and her beauty, he still did not fully ignore her when she was with them, he asked her about what she liked when there was something that had personal preference, for example what kind of play she enjoyed watching, what kind of snacks she wanted when they were shopping, or what rides she wanted to go to in the theme park, however, he would prioritize what he and Fortuna wanted simply because this was a date and she was the third wheel, her demands are not above the couple"s wants.

What drove Venus halfway to insanity was that the l.u.s.t they had for each other would be satisfied with simply holding hands or leaning against each other, simple things were satisfying something she thought was too strong for them to keep from bedding each other on sight. When she voiced her mind Yunan told her that she should not look into his other relationships if this one almost drove her to madness.

That weekend Venus arrived with Fortuna to the family meeting, and was extremely angry that other than Balin and Leol who were drooling over her the rest was just thinking "another G.o.ddess, oh well, not like she can be as lovely as Hephaestus and Fortuna anyway". And what shook her most was that between all the members here was a relationship that was on par or stronger then what Yunan and Fortuna had, even between males and she could not help but feel empty for not understanding a form of love that was meant to be her domain, Venus left the house later on after confirming why she was not the only and ultimate G.o.ddess of love and beauty, there was a lot that she did not experience in her life and after becoming an ascended she had a hard time comprehending something that she did not recognize as a form of love for an eternity.

When asked about the reason why Venus came to visit he simply stated " because we are so abnormal she could not understand how we love each other, well she came by to understand and got herself nothing but frustration, she is a G.o.ddess of love and beauty and only the perverted ones appreciated her beauty, the rest didn"t care, she wasn"t ready for that kind of feeling yet"

After that Yunan took a week to step out of the dungeon and go see his mother, who was now a most revered character in the city of Mar Sara simply because she was gifted the illusive stargazer jewellery and since she was a humble and nice woman she was already popular with the population. Yunan stole her away from the orphanage and took her away so that he could act as spoiled as he wanted, it has been a long time since they met and mother was the same as always, with love flooding out from every look and move she made.
